Understand your own strengths and your staff's strengths. Leaders are most effective when they understand their own styles, work from their strengths, and compensate for their blind spots. Personality type is the way people gain energy, absorb information, and make decisions. It explains how people lead, communicate, and learn. It's possible to learn how to utilize those areas that are not our natural strengths. y understanding personality types and differentiation, school leadership teams can more effectively distribute leadership responsibilities. Principals, administrators, and teacher leaders can also help others utilize their strengths and develop their other capacities.An ideal resource for principals, assistant principals, teacher leaders, assistant superintendents, superintendents, and those leading or serving on school improvement teams or other teams.

Recenzii

"This book is research-based and grounded in practice and practical application. A wonderful resource for ensuring high-quality learning environments that honor students' learning preferences."

"I was glued to the book and constantly thinking about how I could apply what I was reading to my team."
"There are so many strengths to this book that I can't list them all, but the terrific communication tips for working with your team are some of my favorite pieces—these alone are worth the price of the book."
"This book does more to allow school administrators to follow the old admonition of 'know thyself' than many other training books. The personality type framework informs administrators how to know their staff in ways that can be applied every day. Twenty years in the principalship have given me some of the same understandings as those found in this book, but this book allows those lessons to be learned more quickly and with less cost."
“After reading this book, I have a much clearer understanding of why staff members express differing reactions to the same situation. More importantly, I now know what I can do differently to enable better understanding for each person. I look forward to sharing the book and its concepts with our administrators.”
